**The brand-new testing system testing at Percy Duel Academy will now be divided into three sections, which consist of:

1. A match duel, much like before. A maximum of 75 possible points. Don't forget to side-deck well!2. single duel using an alternative method and randomly generated cards. A maximum of 20 possible points for this portion.3. A rulings questions sent to you by the tester or an admin via PM after you have made your testing post. The question is worth just 5 points, but that can be the difference between dorms.

In short...

** There is a total possible score of 100** Getting into Obelisk will be harder than ever, as you need at minimum 90 points.** There is a minimum point total of 75 to get into Ra Yellow.** Anything under 75 points, and using banned cards in your match duel WILL get you placed into the Slifer Red dormitory. (Thanks for taking the time to read this!)** A valid test result consists only of one or more parties Life-Points reaching 0.

Please make sure to read it carefully and read what's in the spoilers .

-Banned Decks/Cards -

Spoiler:

-OTK/FTK based decks

Spoiler:

*The FTK , any kind is fully banned .*About the OTK , yes , there are a lot of decks that can do an OTK , so to avoid that know this : NEVER OTK your tester .

-stall decks

Stall cards are decks that prevent your opponent from damaging you.Decks usually include stall cards as part of a “larger strategy” They are also used to buy time and stall if the opponent gains an advantage over them. [This is different than a player stalling for time].

Spoiler:

*Final countdown (this card cannot be used in any situation since it goes against the rule of valid test )* Swift scarecrow *Battle fader*threatening roar *Waboku

[ if you run some of those cards in a deck , and you think it’s not a stall , you can ask the teachers about it , they will tell if it’s allowed or not .]So long as a decks main purpose is not stalling, some stall cards are acceptable for defense.

Burn deck is a deck that made for the purpose of making your opponent’s life points 0 by using several of cards that deal effect damage and mostly those decks will be combined with stalling cards , which are banned from being used in the test , and by banning burn decks , we are banning the decks that has a main strategy of dealing burn

A deck that’s made for the purpose of making your opponent lose all the cards in there deck till they are unable to draw .

- Evilswarm/Verz

*EVilswarm Ophion *EVilswarm Bahamut

-Dinorabbit

Simply a deck that runs rabbit and normal dinosaurs monsters (that does not mean rabbit itself is banned)

-Pure Elemental Dragon Build

A deck that focuses on the summoning of the Elemental Dragons to the exclusion of all else. Including Elemental Dragons in other decks is still fine.

-Dark World

We aren't banning the entire Dark World archetype. Instead, we strive to create a non-linear style of gameplay focused more on the archetype's own mechanics than on using the field to drop Grapha for silly advantages. So the cards forbidden when used in this deck are simply :

After the testee make a post ( Please use the template ) , you will be given randomly generated cards in which both you, and your tester will have to use to create a deck. These are randomly generated, so you may have a Ritual or Fusion monster with no means of summoning them. This tests your creativity, and you'll have plenty to choose from.

After you post the topic , a teacher/admin will post giving you the list of randomly selected cards ,when you are ready , a teacher will test you then post your results in the topic you made , after that an admin will come lock the topic award the teacher and assign you to your dorm.

** you can ask a retest after a month or more , or by buying the retest item from the main shop , the first time you do a retest and you score less dorm , you won't be dropped to it . ( this only apply once).** An instant retest can be bought only once per week.** a tester will be awarded 50DPs per test .
